Axiom Space private astronaut missions support breakthroughs in space, bringing benefits to every human, everywhere.
This is an educational activity aimed to inspire interest in space exploration, STEM subjects, and environmental awareness.
The Saudi Space Agency’s (SSA) Microgravity Challenge features the winning hardware, science experiments, and artwork from the Madak competition, which received over 80,000 submissions from students aged 6-18 across the Arab region. Ten winners were selected across three categories: arts, agriculture, and engineering. The competition aims to foster innovation in space science, stimulating creative thinking and interest in space-related fields. By encouraging young talents, it seeks to inspire the next generation of space professionals, contributing to the growth of the space sector in the Arab world and the global space economy.
These will consist of four different STEAM outreach activities for Indian students.
Short Term Anatomical and Biomechanical Changes of the Eye in Microgravity on Axiom-1 Mission (Sansori Ax-1) assesses eye and vision changes in crew members on the Axiom-1 (Ax-1) private astronaut mission (PAM). Many but not all astronauts experience changes in eye anatomy and visual acuity known as Space Associated Neuro-Ocular Syndrome (SANS), and a better understanding of the condition could support development of countermeasures.
